Mike Shannon's

On the way to a baseball game, a stop at Mike Shannon's is something everyone should do at least once. The baseball memorabilia is worth viewing for all Cardinal fans as well as any baseball fan visiting St. Louis for the first time. The service is very good which lends to an upscale hotel like experience. It might have been the Red Sox fans that added the out of town feel to our recent dinner. To exemplify the top notch service, when one of the table bussers dropped a tray just as we were being seated, every employee swooped in to handle the situation and we received a complementary drink for our trouble. The steak is a must try and will melt in your mouth. If you think even the 8 ounce filet is too much, split the steak and try some appetizers and side dishes. The creamed spinach had a nice smooth texture and an even better flavor. The spinach salad was equally enticing as were the crab cakes with just a touch of Cajun spiciness.
